This is the standard form of the equation. You have to make it into slope-intercept form to find the slope, hence the name.

7x+2y=5

7x+2y=5.
-7x. -7x. (You need to have y=)

2y=-7x+5.
/2. /2. (Divide by 2 to get only 1 y)


y=-7/2x+2.5. (Final Answer)



The slope is -7/2.

Answer:

The slope is -7/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert to slope-intercept form (y = mx + b  where m = the slope)

7x + 2y = 5

2y = -7x + 5

Divide both sides by 2:-

y = (-7/2)x + 5/2

so slope m = -7/2
